"It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown....a modern political tale"
| In the first five minutes of this animated classic, we have a microcosm of America in 2010.
Lucy, with her "signed document" is the Republicans and their "Pledge to America".
Charlie Brown is America, who, even though deep down knows Lucy's going to pull the football away when he tries to kick it, still succumbs to her entreaty that this time it'll be different because she has presented him with a "signed document."
Same old Lucy, same old result.
America trusts the Republicans not to do what they've always done, because this time they've given us a "Pledge to America".
America ends up flat on its back. Again.
That is the definition of insanity.
